Dennis, Yeah - seems to me we were on the same side of the fence on this subject awhile back.
It is mentioned above that statistics show few accidents are related to phones, but think about this - When one has been drinking, and is over the limit, and is then in an accident, there is proof positive of the drinking by testing. Police will discern this, and you will go to jail - whether the wreck is your fault or not. Statistic logged. When someone is looking down, reading their phone, and swerves in to a nice family in oncoming traffic, no one drags them to jail.... The person is not going to offer up they were looking in to their lap reading a text from loverboy just prior to their Kia crossing the center line and hitting YOU head on. In most instances there is likely no way to prove using a phone was the root cause. You know they say "no" if asked if they were using the phone.
It is just infuriating to me to see SO MANY people looking down, and all over the road as they drive. 90% of the communicating they do is likely useless drivel. It is just as much of an utter lack of respect for OTHER PEOPLE'S safety as drinking and driving. IMHO

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
